After a *very* long "I'll get a round tuit" I have finally released sigma-consolefonts-0.5 (the 'ellipsis' release). Anyone on this list who is interested can pick them up from http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~ken/fonts/sigma-consolefonts/ : there is actually a README file in that directory, but I've given up trying to understand what I need to do to make regular files (as distinct from tarballs) at LFS actually appear in firefox, so I'll point to it now, at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~ken/fonts/sigma-consolefonts/README
The rest of the world will probably pick it up from http://homepage.ntlworld.com/zarniwhoop/consolefonts/sigma.html which has an almost, but not quite, unreadable gif for people who have built X and therefore probably don't need more console fonts. At least, they might try to download it if I can remember how to update the page on freshmeat 8-( Main changes since the previous release: o 'g' corrected. o Defaults corrected to /usr/local. o Double-quotes corrected. o Reshaped ð (eth). o Corrections to some of the example alphabets. o Applied patch from Adam Sampson to correct the bdf file so that bdftopcf will work with the bdf font - if I add any more glyphs in the future, I'll probably break that again because I no longer build bdftopcf or some of its dependencies, so get it while it's (I hope) good ! ;-) ĸen -- thanks to Bruce for remarking on the trac changes and prompting me to test if I could read them - I don't normally use the console very much after xorg is installed. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-chat FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
